I need some help ...i had an interview on 30 August 2022
Lilongwe,Malawi
Status : Denied (J1 VISA )
VO: good afternoon
Me : good afternoon madam
Vo: pass me your documents
Me : here you go(passed)
VO: What are you goin to do in America
Me :I will be doing my agriculture Training program at Livingston enterprise as a swine technician for the period of 12 months
VO:have you ever been to America before
Me : no av never been there
VO: What program did you study
Me: I did agriculture,i have a diploma in agriculture
Vo: currently what are you doing
Me : am a student
Vo: sorry we cant give you visa,due to our strict immigration rules
I figured out that i made a mistake on last question,i said am student, instead of saying that am a civil servant who works with ministry of agriculture as a vertinary officer
My question
How am i going to convince the visa officer for my second interview that i work since 2020 ,
what are my chances of getting the visa if i tell them that am civil servant but goin for j1 program in the USA.
Am i not over qualified for J1 visa ? because i have a job in ministry of agriculture
Your help will be highly appreciated
